Hurricane Helen, which hit the southern United States, affected thousands of people, including golf legend John Daly.
Daley said Wednesday that she lost her home in Clearwater, Florida, in the “catastrophic” storm.
“I'm really happy that everyone is staying healthy. That's the most important thing,” he said. PGA Tour Website. “You live in Florida and you have to understand that things like this happen, but not like this. I never thought it would be this bad.”
He added that nearly half a dozen other homes owned by friends and family were also destroyed in the storm.
“I think it's more about the memories that Mama, Chrissy and Matty had in that house over the years. When you lose something like that, you miss the memories,” Daly said.
Daly will be participating in the PGA Tour Champions event in Jacksonville, Florida.
Herren criticized Florida for classifying it as a Category 4 hurricane, one of the worst in modern history.
